Denon DCM-65 5-CD Changer

Summary: Good, but not perfect CD Player
Review: I bought this CD player after my other CD player decided to stop working (running 24/7 for several months didn't treat it well), and while generally pleased with it (sounds great, works fine, yadda, yadda) I have a few nits to pick: The functionality embodied on the remote is not present on the front of the unit, annoying if you loose the remote; sometimes it plays through all five discs, sometimes not. Other than that, a good player.

Summary: Top quality Denon sound at an affordable price.
Review: I've always been amazed by the sound quality of Denon equipment, but let's face it... Denon equipment is not inexpensive. This CD player brings the pristine Denon sound into an affordable range; nearly the same price as any other 5-disc changer on the market.

The Denon DCM-65 seems to be very well made with a speedy, quiet changer mechanism that allows four discs to be changed while the fifth continues to play. All control buttons on the face of the unit are above the drawer so they are still accessible even when it is open.

The sound quality of this unit is top-notch. Both standard audio CDs and HDCD CDs sound fantastic. After several hours of continuous listening, there was no "fatigue" that is common of players with lesser digital to analog conversion processors. Also, the unit had no difficulty reading homemade CD-R discs.

The remote control is well laid out and the disc/track/time display on the front of the CD changer is easily read from across the room.

Overall, this is a fantastic value in CD changers. Buy one and you won't be disappointed.

Summary: The DCM-65 is another great deal from AMAZON!
Review: The Denon DCM-65 is my second piece of audio equipment that I have gotten from AMAZON.I must say the deals on such good brand name equipment is mind blowing.When the CD player arrived I hooked it up to my Nakamichi AV3S Pro Logic recever.The sound that comes from the four speakers(2 Infinity SM120 & 2 Boston Acoustics A100)is amazing,it's almost like hearing my CDs for the first time.The HDCD filter is a wonderful feature as well.Just look on your CDs for HDCD and put it in the player.When a HDCD is in the player a red light will come on next to the display.HDCDs sound amazing,I really could not believe what I was hearing.Take my word on this one,HDCDs really do sound great.The player is set up very well,everything you need & not a bunch of buttons that you dont need.The player also has a handy remote that is very easy to use.One feature I like is the disc exchange.This is simply if you are listening to a disc,just hit the open/close button & put in another CD.To sum it up a great 5 Disc CD Changer at another Great AMAZON price.Once again you really need to check out HDCDs and this player has the filter to play them. Thank You once again AMAZON.
